Downloading games takes a ridiculous amount of
time.

It's bad when you take almost 15 minutes to download a game that's only a couple hundred MB. Nintendo should use faster servers to make the buying experience more convenient. Does no one agree or have similar frustrations?

Actually eshop is pretty fast compared to a certain other shop. seriously that other shop it takes like 12 hours to download anything over half a gig. when i was using my computer i could download something that big in less then an hour,and run parral games,run parrel downloads etc.

When i downloaded unchained blades (which is at least gig) it took my at most 10 minutes.---Jirachi is the best pokemon "I'll wait for you here it what princess do from what i understand it's kind of a family tradition."

It is incredibly slow. I find I always get better speeds if I just do download later and close the 3DS. Try that out. It's not always a fix, but at least it never hangs up and forces me to restart.---PSN: Alchemix193DS: 1590-4954-3719

Do download later and you'll be shocked how quickly it goes.---"I'm saying people outside GameFAQs didn't care when Mega Man Legends 3 was cancelled." horror_spooky

Either you are far from their servers or your speeds are crap. Takes me 30-40 minutes for 6 gb, took me under 2 hours to download Ni No Kuni which was close to 20 gb---Sent from my iPhone via PowerGuides 1.10

My 3DS has far faster download speeds than my PSP or PS3. Oddly enough my Vita has pretty good download speeds as well.---Official Cherry Garcia of the IDFOfficial Lion Tamer of the NDF

Only big games. Downloading the FE demo took a couple minutes but downloading a Game Boy game takes just a few seconds.---GT: Tommy XD0013DS FC: 4682-8954-0442
